Prager Riesling Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd 2024 Magnum

Prager Riesling Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd 2024 Magnum is a serious Wachau Riesling in magnum format, offering extra cellar potential and an impressive stage for the wine’s precision and depth. From one of Austria’s most respected producers, it combines striking mineral drive, concentration, and a strong sense of origin. The Bodenstein name carries historical weight at Prager, where the family has helped shape the identity of great Wachau wine for decades.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Riesling typically shows a bright, clear appearance with the intensity and focus expected from a Smaragd-level wine. The nose leans toward pure citrus, stone fruit, and subtle floral notes, layered with a cool, steely minerality and a distinctly Wachau character. On the palate, it is built around tension and detail rather than sheer power: concentrated fruit, lively acidity, and a long, saline finish that keeps the wine feeling energetic and refined. Thanks to the magnum format and the wine’s structure, it should age beautifully, developing greater complexity, texture, and nuance over time.

Production
Sourced from the Wachau, a region famous for its steep terraces and mineral-rich soils, this wine reflects the precision and clarity that make the area so prized. Smaragd is the highest Wachau classification and is reserved for the most concentrated, fully ripe wines. Prager’s approach is firmly terroir-driven, with careful harvesting and a vinification style designed to preserve freshness, purity, and the layered expression of the site.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for refined seafood such as scallops, lobster, turbot, or oysters, as well as elegant fish dishes and light poultry preparations. It also works beautifully with dishes that combine finesse and a touch of richness, such as creamy sauces or delicate Asian-inspired cuisine. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting if opening young to help the wine раскрыte its aromatic depth.
